So rather than let everyone struggle, tell people in classes or help individuals here is a definitive list. The links will take you straight to the right section in LinkedIn, once you have entered your password of course.

The view I take is that I am happy for them to monitor my external connections, as I only connect with sites I trust and actually I am happy for them to have the feedback and to try and enhance the experience.
